Low Water Condition
If the water level in the boiler falls below the level of the
sensing well, the control will close the main gas valve
within three seconds, shutting off the main burners. The
RED LED will illuminate indication a low water condition.
Once the water level has been restored the RED LED will
go dark and the control will resume normal operation.
PWXL with Standing Pilot
Units with a standing pilot do not use an ignition module or
a separate pilot valve. Upon a call for heat the control will
open the main gas valve and the standing pilot will then
light the main burners.
